The nation's trauma care system has been destroyed by the John Edwards Trial Lawyer, Inc. wing of the democrat party.

Yep, but it's more than just trauma care. First started with OB, then trauma, now the cost of malpractice in all fields has skyrocketed in some states.

I "retired" to look after my kids. When I looked into going back part time I discovered that after paying for malpractice, it wasn't economically feasible. Why work for a pay scale a little higher than a high school grad.

I would rather spend the time with my family and not owing the government money. I could be a big chunk of change for the feds and the state if they would make it worth my while, but they haven't. So be it.
